250W Infrared Lamb Heat Lamp

Product Name 250W Infrared Lamb Heat Lamp
Product Image 250W infrared lamb heat lamp with aluminum reflector and safety grille
Product Overview

The 250W Infrared Lamb Heat Lamp is a suspended livestock radiant heater designed to create a localized warm resting zone for newborn, chilled, weak or recovering lambs. The reference heater uses a large aluminum reflector, protective wire grille and E27 lamp holder and is suitable for infrared bulbs rated up to 250 W. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Infrared radiant heating concentrates warmth around the animal resting area rather than heating the entire livestock building. This makes the unit suitable for lambing pens, maternity areas, nursery pens and other localized livestock warming applications.

The suspended design is particularly useful in commercial livestock buildings, modular pens and steel-structure farm facilities where heat sources need to be positioned above individual creep or recovery areas while keeping electrical components away from direct animal contact.

Key Features
  • Up to 250W Heating Capacity: Compatible with suitable E27 infrared heating bulbs with a maximum rated input of 250 W. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
  • Large Aluminum Reflector: The reference configuration uses a 35 cm diameter aluminum shade to direct radiant heat toward the animal resting zone. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
  • Eight Ventilation Slots: Openings in the reflector promote air circulation around the lamp and assist heat distribution. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
  • Protective Safety Grille: The wire guard helps prevent direct contact between animals, combustible objects and the hot infrared bulb. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
  • Suspension Chain: Supplied with a hanging chain for flexible positioning above livestock pens. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
  • Long Power Cable: The reference heater is equipped with a 5 m cable to simplify installation in livestock buildings. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
  • Suitable for Young Livestock: Designed for lambs, piglets, calves, goat kids, chicks and other young or recovering animals. :contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}
  • Localized Radiant Warmth: Creates a warm nesting zone without requiring whole-building temperature increases.
  • Project Adaptability: Voltage, plug configuration, cable arrangement and heating-zone layout can be selected according to project requirements.
Structural Components
Aluminum Reflector Large metal shade that directs infrared radiation downward toward the livestock warming area.
Ventilation Slots Openings in the reflector improve air circulation and help manage heat around the lamp assembly.
E27 Lamp Holder Standard socket for compatible infrared heating bulbs up to the specified maximum power.
Safety Grille Metal protective cage installed below the lamp to reduce direct contact risk.
Silicone Sealing Ring Used around the lamp base in compatible assemblies to maintain splash-protection requirements. :contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}
Suspension Chain Allows the heater to be hung securely above a lambing or nursery pen.
Power Cable and Plug Supplies electrical power while allowing the heater to be positioned away from the nearest wall outlet.
Working Principle / Structural Principle

A compatible infrared bulb converts electrical energy into radiant heat. The aluminum reflector directs much of this radiation downward toward the lamb resting area, creating a concentrated warm zone beneath the lamp.

Unlike general space heating, radiant heat warms animals and nearby surfaces directly. The suspension height can therefore be adjusted to change the intensity and coverage of the warming zone according to animal age, ambient temperature and pen conditions.

Ventilation slots in the reflector allow air circulation around the lamp assembly, while the protective grille helps maintain separation between the hot bulb and animals or combustible barn materials. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}

Installation & Maintenance

Installation:

  1. Suspend the heater from a secure structural point using the designated chain rather than the electrical cable.
  2. Install the heater above the livestock resting area at a height appropriate for animal age and local ambient conditions.
  3. Keep the heater, hot bulb and protective grille away from bedding, timber, plastic panels and other combustible materials.
  4. Route the power cable above the lower edge of the unit and outside the reach of animals.
  5. Install only a compatible E27 infrared lamp with a maximum input power of 250 W.
  6. Ensure the safety grille is correctly engaged before operation.
  7. Electrical installation and any fixed wiring should comply with local livestock-building electrical regulations.

Maintenance:

  • Disconnect the power supply and allow the heater and bulb to cool before cleaning or maintenance.
  • Inspect the cable, plug, socket, suspension chain and safety grille regularly for damage.
  • Remove dust from the reflector and ventilation slots to maintain heat distribution and airflow.
  • Replace damaged infrared bulbs immediately after disconnecting the mains supply.
  • Maintain the required sealing components when splash resistance is required.
  • Remove damaged electrical equipment from service until inspected or repaired by qualified personnel.
  • Avoid positioning long loose straw or other easily combustible bedding close to the heat source.

The manufacturer's operating instructions specifically require the unit to be suspended correctly, kept inaccessible to animals, operated with the protective grille engaged and fitted only with compatible E27 bulbs up to 250 W. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}

Product FAQ

Q1: Is the infrared bulb included with the heater?

The reference heater is supplied without the infrared bulb. Compatible E27 bulbs can be selected separately according to heating requirements. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}

Q2: Can a 250W bulb be used?

Yes. The large reference heater is designed for compatible E27 infrared lamps up to a maximum input power of 250 W. :contentReference[oaicite:14]{index=14}

Q3: What size is the reflector?

The reference large heater uses a 35 cm diameter aluminum reflector with eight ventilation slots. :contentReference[oaicite:15]{index=15}

Q4: Can it be used for animals other than lambs?

Yes. The heater is suitable for piglets, calves, lambs, goats, chicks and other young or recovering animals. :contentReference[oaicite:16]{index=16}

Q5: Why is a protective grille important?

The safety grille helps prevent direct contact between the hot bulb and animals or combustible objects within the livestock building.

Q6: Can the lamp height be adjusted?

Q7: Can the system be used in commercial lambing barns?

Yes. Multiple suspended heaters can be planned above designated newborn or recovery zones in commercial lambing and nursery facilities.

Q8: Can SHEWUYOU provide different electrical configurations?

Voltage, plug type, cable arrangement, bulb selection and project quantities can be supplied according to project requirements and local electrical standards.
